The day IdgieThreadgoode and Ruth Jamison opened the Whistle Stop Cafe, the town
took a turn for the better. It was the Depression and that cafe was a home from
home for many of us. You could get eggs, grits, bacon, ham, coffee and a smile
for 25 cents.
Ruth was just the sweetest girl you ever met. And Idgie, she wa
s a character, all right. You never saw anyone so headstrong.
But how anybody
could have thought she murdered that man is beyond me. "Fried Green Tomatoes at
the Whistle Stop Cafe" is a mouth-watering tale of love, laughter and mystery.
It will lift your spirits and above all it'll remind you of the secret to life:
friends and best friends.
